"vers4" allows you to enable or disable v4 has a whole.
The assumption is that if enabled, all minor versions that the kernel
supports will be enabled by default.
vers4.x allows individual minor versions to be disabled, so
 vers4=yes
 vers4.0=no
would disable v4.0, just like "-V4 -N4.0"

I do wonder if this is ever valid though.  Why do we allow minor
versions to be enabled/disabled?
Does it make any sense to enable a non-contiguous set of minor versions?
Should we just have a maximum NFSv4 minor version?

I was trying to duplicate the current functionality as closely as
convenient.  That might not be best in this case.

Thanks,
